7 SCSI Tape Drives Only — If necessary, install an LVD/SE
host bus adapter in the server or workstation.
8 SCSI Tape Drives Only — Connect an active LVD/SE
terminator onto one end of the SCSI cable, if the tape
drive is the last or only device on the SCSI bus (see
figure
2). If the SCSI cable that came with the SCSI host
bus adapter already has a terminator built into it, do
not use an additional terminator.
N

OTE
on the SCSI bus, make sure the last device on
the SCSI bus is properly terminated and is
powered on whenever you use the tape drive.
